HFs in Southeast Asia
Hi, does anyone know what the hedge fund scene in Southeast Asia (mainly Singapore) looks like today? Which major global / regional funds have offices in Singapore? Any thoughts on who's doing well?
Thanks!

Hi crazymonkeybusiness2, any of these discussions helpful:
More suggestions...
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
A couple of MM platforms have offices in the region and tend to be more macro-focused. Quantedge is probably the most notable fund in Singapore. Supposedly they run crazy leverage.
The issue with L/S equity in the region is low liquidity and the fact that a lot of the local regulators restrict shorting. As a result, most of the fundamentally oriented funds are either long-only or niche and secretive.
That being said. I would be very interested to hear from HF people who have actually lived in Singapore.
Hi! How about Japan HF landscape? Does it even exist? I heard the high income tax rate corporate and individual discourage HF from being set up there
Yep Quantedge targets 30% vol for a systematic macro portfolio so they employ large leverage. The other Singapore name that is about same size is Dymon Asia, which is used to be a macro fund but converted to more of MM model recently.
Global MM funds like Millennium, ExodusPoint, BlueCrest (now more prop/family office than fund) and their spinoffs/related funds in Singapore as well.
Notably Citadel just opened an office here, though seems to be commodity-focused.
Is it possible to join a MM without knowing how to code?
Which funds in Singapore that run global L/S (be it SM or MM)?

How original. Well done.
